Core Viewpoint - The focus of the discussions between Russian President Putin and Indian Prime Minister Modi during Putin's visit to India on December 4 will be on the oil trade between Russia and India, amidst U.S. pressure on India not to purchase Russian oil [1][2]. Group 1: U.S. Pressure and Trade Dynamics - Putin questioned the U.S. pressure on India regarding the purchase of Russian oil, arguing that if the U.S. can buy nuclear fuel from Russia for its nuclear power plants, India should also have the right to purchase oil from Russia for fuel purposes [2]. - Since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict in February 2022, the U.S. and Europe have imposed multiple rounds of sanctions on Russia, yet India has become the largest buyer of Russian seaborne oil [2]. Group 2: Tariffs and Trade Relations - In August, U.S. President Trump signed an executive order imposing an additional 25% tariff on Indian products, citing India's direct or indirect import of Russian oil, bringing the total tariff rate on Indian products to 50% [2]. - India has repeatedly emphasized that the tariffs imposed by the Trump administration are unreasonable and unfair, highlighting that the U.S. continues to engage in trade with Russia, importing billions of dollars worth of energy and commodities, including liquefied natural gas and enriched uranium [2].
